Before using your earpiece for the first time, you must pair it with
your Bluetooth® wireless technology enabled phone. Normally you
need to pair your earpiece with your phone only once.
To see a demo of the pairing process, visit www.plantronics.com/
EasyToPair (only available in English).

paired successfully, your earpiece stays on for instant use.
If not successfully paired after 10 minutes, your earpiece automatically
powers off. When you turn the earpiece on again, it automatically goes
into pairing mode until successfully paired with a Bluetooth phone.
